British Pattern 1895 Bayonet

Approved in 1895, the Model 1895 bayonet was a conversion of the earlier Model 1876 bayonet designed for the Martini-Henry. The conversion was made by cutting down and then bushing the socket. The socket was then bored and slotted and fitted with a new locking grip stop and screw.

This bayonet is in excellent condition. It retains the majority of its blueing on the socket with extremely minor marks only. The blade is bright. The scabbard is in good condition although the leather has minor wear in places and the stitching has broken.
